This may be my favorite row house yet! Today, I finished the last three houses for the rowhouse swap in which I'm involved and blogged about here. The baggie for this house had the harlequin paper, black paper, orange paper, number stamped image (on the roof), count quote, postage stamp and bubble thing. I decided to go with a "Number" theme and added the white wood numbers, bingo card, numbers inside bubble thing, the ribbon and the mad hatter image from my stash. It reminded me house much I love Alice in Wonderland images. Since it's been a while since I've done a give-away and since I've had such good responses to the rowhouses, here is the challenge:
1. Create anything with an Alice in Wonderland theme (very loosely defined).
2. Post your creation in your blog with a link back to this post (or send me a pix of your creation if you don't have a blog). You can also post in a forum if that's better for you.
3. Post a comment here letting me know where to find your creation.
4. I'll pick a random winner next Sunday, Feb. 27 at 9:00 p.m. California time. The winner will receive all the fixings they need to make a couple of row houses!
How fun will this be???

This sounds great fun,Rinda...I love Alice in Wonderland as well. I think this is probably my favourite of your houses as well...love the way you've put it all together...works so well.Did you notice Scrap 2010 have a 'white space' challenge this week??

I love the creative inspiration Alice offers. I already have an Alice inspired page on my blog (so don't include it because it's a bit of a cheat lol) here it is: http://fromhighinthesky.blogspot.com/2010/01/sunday-doll.html

Oh, a great challenge! I hope I will find time to join in.. I love your Alice house - very cute. I was wondering what a "Rowhouse" could be and had images in my head, involving little boats etc... We call these rows of houses "Terraces" or "Terraced houses"! You can have an End-of-Terrace or a Mid-Terrace house! It's such fun, how UK English and US English have evolved to have such great little differences.

lol - Alice is everywhere!! I already, coincidentally, have an Alice-themed autopost set for tomorrow (but it's not my own artwork so isn't my entry) - because of that I was already planning to make something Alice-y! I'll do my best to have it ready for the end of the week :-)
